Overview
- The Tribunale di Sorveglianza of Milan granted affidamento in prova to Alberto Stasi after a reserved hearing and the ordinance was deposited, allowing him to leave Bollate and begin supervised service outside prison.
- The Procura Generale of Milan, represented in court by substitute procurator Valeria Marino, gave a favourable opinion based on Stasi’s long record of good conduct, positive educational and psychological reports, acceptance of the sentence, and ongoing compensation payments to the Poggi family.
- Affidamento in prova is a legally defined alternative that lets prisoners with under four years remaining serve their residual sentence under rules such as residence limits, nightly home return times, region travel bans without permission, required work or volunteering, and revocation if prescriptions are broken.
- Separately the Procura di Pavia has transmitted investigative materials about Andrea Sempio to Milan’s prosecutors and the Procura Generale is examining those files to decide whether to request a formal revision of Stasi’s 16-year conviction, a process that remains in progress and is expected to take longer than the release decision.
- Stasi’s exit changes daily life for the people involved: he has moved to rented housing near Milan and will continue working, the Poggi family and public remain emotionally engaged, and the next major developments to watch are any formal revision request and whether compliance with the affidamento conditions is maintained.
